This is such an amazing location. The gate was locked but there s a tiny wall that you can scoot over. When I arrived the grass was long and there wasn't a sign of any livestock in the field. You can walk around the ruins and one or two rooms were surprisingly intact. Obviously its dangerous to walk around the ruins so be very very careful. Its incredible how much of the structure is still standing. The castle is 12th Century with additional later construction. With the Holy Well and Bullaun stone situated so close by Clonmore is a great detour to make a stop in.

It maybe a 12th Century fortress, but for our two, they had it conquered in no time. Only nettle stings sustained. Vaulted room "discovered " at the end of a dark passageway, nooks and crannies checked but best of all was the "Dungeon". Great place to visit but seems to be used as a cattle shed. Thankfully nobody home today. We loved it. Such a pity its not maintained with proper public access.

MUST STOP TO SEE!!!! This was very cool. One of the commenters said the pictures don’t do it justice - that is true. It is great to explore and the kids had fun imagining what it would have been like in the 1300’s. Not clear how to get in so we had to climb a rock pile on the outside or climb over the front fence. The site says open 24 hours. Enjoy the exploration and park right out front.

This is a GREAT castle ruin to visit but be aware that many parts of the structure are in a poor state.

The tower on the far right when looking at the ruin from the road is very dangerous. Part of the tower is separating from the rest of the structure. At the top of the tower there’s a huge piece of stone that is about to fall.

There’s no information which is a shame. Wouldn’t recommend with very small children due to structural issues. No access for wheelchair users or those...

Gorgeous big stone castle from 13th century, amazing how much is still standing considering it hasn't been restored/managed. Also wild how little information there is on who built it etc. Well worth a visit if you are in the area.

In a big enclosed field, lots of space. Took the dogs with us. Parking in a lay by out the front. Accessible through a gate, grass a bit overgrown and rocky in places so air of caution to those who are less...
